It is game day!

The Saskatchewan Roughriders are in Toronto, set to take on the Argonauts tonight. The green and white enter the contest with a 2-0 record, and while they haven't played perfectly, TSN analyst Glenn Suitor told the SportsCage that he likes what he's seen so far.

"Clean up a few things on defence," he said. "They're 2-0 at times when they've not been, you know, real clean at times and not been on top of their game at times. So that's an excellent sign if you're a Rider fan. Again, we're going through some changes and there's going to be some changes again this week, like every other team is facing, so that's not an excuse."

"You know, real good field position thanks to Mario Alford has been huge in the first two games. I think Trevor Harris has been fantastic in the first two games. You add in from last week, A.J. Ouellette, starting to find his game after going through some injuries. Again, all good signs. This is a good defence in Toronto. Nothing is guaranteed, but you know, I think if you're Corey Mace, you feel pretty good and pretty confident about your team heading in there."

The Nelson Holmes, Croft Electric Countdown to Kickoff starts at 2:30 this afternoon on the 620 CKRM Cooperators Rider Broadcast Network.
